De zeewering is gemakkelijk bereikbaar vanuit Downtown met de West-Vancouver bussen.
The False Creek is a creek that divides downtown from the rest of the city. You can see that the creek is made up of the four major water bodies of Vancouver. The creek was named by George Henry Richards a hydrographer in his survey of 1856-63. A beautiful inlet and a must-see.
Amid the surf, sand and trees at the end of miles of rocks and sand lies this beach, where clothing-optional sunbathing is permitted.

Located near the University of British Columbia, it even has its own society that organizes events like sandcastle building, an art show, beach ball, kite-flying and sand croquet - all sans apparel. Vendors sell everything from jewelry and clothing to special cookies and beer. Get your hair cut, a massage or even a pedicure.
Dit park wordt beschouwd als één van de meest ideale plaatsen om hand in hand te wandelen en om te picknicken. Point Atkinson Vuurtoren, gebouwd in 1912, is een wildernisgebied dicht bij het stadscentrum van West-Vancouver. Het is gemakkelijk bereikbaar per auto en met het openbaar vervoer en is een favoriete plek voor een dagwandeling. De paden in het park voeren u langs enorme Douglassparren, rotswanden en een granieten kustlijn. Kijk uit voor de kale adelaars die nestelen in de Douglassparren. Helaas, de vuurtoren zelf is in gebruik en is gesloten voor het publiek.
This non-profit museum showcases a unique collection of air-crafts and is committed to the preservation and education of Canada's aviation culture. In the 1970s most of Canada's historic planes were being moved to the U.S. and Europe. Thanks to efforts of a group of aviation enthusiasts, many of these aircraft were acquired, and the museum was created. Some of the aircraft displayed include the T-33AN Silverstar, Bowlus Bumblebee BB1, the CF-100 Canuck Mk 3b, and the DH82c Tiger Moth. As you make your way through the museum, you can take a chronological route, starting with the world wars and ending in present day, allowing you to see the huge role Canada has played in the development of aviation. This is an ideal trip for families, and people of all ages.
